Shared Revenues - Preliminary Budget Estimates

A preliminary estimate of shared revenues for each city and town for FY 2011-2012 is set forth in this report. We obtained the total
dollar figures on which these early estimates are based from the Department of Transportation (ADOT) and the Department of Revenue
(DOR). The final HURF and sales tax figures will not be available until later in the year, but to assist in your early budget preparations,
they kindly provided us with these numbers.
Population Figures for Shared Revenue Estimates
As directed by statute, the population used in distribution of state shared revenue for July 1, 2011 until June 30, 2016 is the figure from
the 2010 Census except for the Urban Revenue Sharing (State Shared Income Tax). Changes can only be made to these numbers in the
case of an annexation that has been certified by the Census Bureau. For distribution of Urban Revenue Sharing, those cities and towns
with populations fewer than 1,500 are automatically assumed to have 1,500 in population. The total population figures are as follows:
2010 Designated Population (TPT/HURF/VLT) – pop. for cities/towns .......................5,022,708
2010 Designated Population (URS)- pop. for cities/towns ........................................ 5,028,462
Shared Revenue Estimates
The tables found within this report list the distribution of revenue from the vehicle license tax (VLT), highway user revenue fund (HURF)
and the state sales and income taxes.
Vehicle License Tax (VLT) – Vehicle License Tax monies are have remained relatively flat compared with last year’s estimates.
Highway User Revenue Fund (HURF) - The estimate for highway user revenue to cities and towns is down approximately 4% over last
year’s HURF distribution. (The highway user revenue estimate does not include the 3% monies reserved for cities with populations
over 300,000.)
State Sales Tax - The estimate for state shared sales tax is approximately 4% higher than the estimated amount contained in this
report from last year. This fund may be subject to revision later in the year - we will send out revised estimates if we get any additional
information. In addition, the Department of Revenue will send final estimates in late June.
State Income Tax - The estimate for state income tax is 9% lower than last year’s estimate. (This is the only one of the shared revenues
which can be accurately forecast since it is based on collections from two years ago.)
The total estimated state shared revenues for cities and towns in the upcoming fiscal year, based on current state law, from each of the
sources are as follows:
Vehicle License Tax................................... $184,200,000
Highway User Revenue..............................$302,279,000
State Sales Tax.......................................... $380,000,000
State Income Tax...................................... $424,423,442
If there are any significant changes to any of these numbers, we will get revised estimates to you as soon as possible. If you have any
questions, please give us a call.
